One thing I do is I keep "spare" browsers lying around on my iPad.

I just don't believe that the browsing experience on Android is any more stable. It's not very competitive right now and lacks basic features like "reply as" and "mark all as read." But the bottom line is if Apple doesn't address browser crashing and Android becomes more stable, people will begin to defect. I also expect the mail client to get better. I don't expect Apple to budge on flash just yet but I wouldn't rule it out in the long run. I think the Android competition will keep Apple honest and they will begin offering concessions like a way to share files between apps without creating 8 copies of files for 8 apps (besides photos). Android has over 200,000 apps but they are designed for small screens and I don't know how well they would work on a tablet. One important difference is there are over 100,000 iPad apps. I don't know what the Tegra 3 would be like. I'd rather go Android than jailbreak.īut from what I've seen when I play with the galaxy tabs and other Android tablets in the stores, I've got a far superior tablet experience with my iPad 1. I would consider an Android tablet only if I absolutely needed capability Apple has disabled. I don't normally bother with Safari as I want tabbed browsing. I have it on my iPad 1 and on my iPhone 4. I'm holding out for iOS 5 though to see how close Safari gets to iCab in terms of functionality, that might keep me going until iPad 3 rather than getting an iPad 2 at a point where it is probably over half way to the next hardware update.

I'm noticing how much slower web browsing is vs my 18 month old PC and the crashes due to lack of memory are becoming annoying. I don't know what it is, maybe just me getting used to it and getting over the initial "wow" factor (which took a while since I bought it on UK launch day last year) but I'm finding the limitations of my iPad 1 when web browsing more and more frustrating now.

Sometimes when I get iCab in a bad mood and it goes crash crash crash in the same session I find that doing this stops it continually crashing although it is only a matter of time, usually a few days, before it will crash again on me. Click to expand.Also try double clicking the home button (when not running iCab) and closing iCab so that you force a cold start rather than a resume when you next start it up.
